After careful consideration, Paradox Interactive have taken the decision to move the Prison Architect 2 release date from March 26th to May 7th. The full statement reads as follows…


While we are already confident in the quality of the game, we would like to use some extra time to identify more bugs and further optimize the game for all platforms. Although sticking to the original launch date was an option, we feel that taking this additional time is necessary to ensure that we offer a smoother experience to our players from day one.

We also want to show how the development of the game is going in these final stages, which is why we’ll be starting streams up in March to go alongside our ongoing Prison Architect Academy YouTube series. Stay tuned to find out the dates and times.
